Same error here, but trying to get packer 1.9.4 & VMware fusion 13.5. on Apple M1 Silicon to build a debian 12.2 (arm64) VM.

Packer VMware plugin version: "packer-plugin-vmware_v1.0.10_x5.0_darwin_arm64"

When manually starting up, I have no problems at all. Packer fails with the error: "

"The device type "lsilogic" specified for "scsi0" is not supported by VMware Fusion 13.5.0."

Please look into this. Thanks in advance.
